About Anomaly

Anomaly was created to be a change agent for an industry desperately clinging to legacy models and out-dated ways of thinking. Our simple aim was, and still is, to be at the cutting edge of a changed cultural, technological, media and marketing landscape – as brands must embrace the new world to connect more meaningfully with people.

From Anomaly's inception, we realized intuitively that, in order to succeed, we needed to create an entity that was, literally, an "Anomaly" – something that deviates from the norm or from expectations.

To that end, Anomaly possesses an extremely diverse and elastic set of skills; we operate on a progressive and entrepreneurial business model; we focus on creating business solutions; and lastly, we break down traditional silos through a single bottom line – so as opposed to the status quo, mega-mall-esque conglomerations of specialty service providers, we can offer our partners solutions that are untainted by financial bias.

In the last 13 years, we have learned that change is the norm and the more change we endure, the more complex the dominant business context becomes. We are a company designed specifically for this new world, built on strong values and clear principles, thriving on and enjoying a distinct competitive advantage.

Electrolux appoints Anomaly

Home appliance manufacturer Electrolux has appointed global agency Anomaly after a three-way competitive pitch run by The Burnett Collective.

The client-agency partnership will commence immediately with Anomaly tasked with a breadth of responsibilities that will wrap around various business challenges, including evolving brand and marketing strategy, digital transformation and developing best-in-class consumer experiences.

The agency’s remit will span Small Domestic Appliances and Home Care globally, as well as leadership of all activity for Electrolux’s Major Domestic Appliances across EMEA, as the brand looks to move to a European-specific marketing model locally. As such, the account will be led out of Anomaly’s London office but also draw upon talent from the whole network, especially Amsterdam, Berlin and Shanghai.

Recently appointed CMO Lars Hygrell has been leading the transformation of the brand’s marketing agenda and the appointment of Anomaly is an important part of the long-term strategy for success as Electrolux looks to innovate and evolve the customer experience.

Lars Hygrell, Chief Marketing Officer at Electrolux said: “We have an opportunity at Electrolux to really set ourselves apart from the competition and marketing will play a big role in this. Electrolux is on the journey to transform marketing across three main focus areas - brand desirability, digital consumer experiences and consumer ownership experience. To deliver on our ambitions we need the best team and partners in the industry to ensure we win in the market. In Anomaly we found a unique blend of talent and have seen incredible strength across the whole team. They challenged and questioned us at every step of the process and we look forward to building on this way of working as we move forward.”

Ola Nilsson, CEO Home Care & Small Domestic Appliances at Electrolux said: “We’ve been very impressed with how Anomaly has responded throughout the pitch process. They have really listened to the team and spent time getting to know what it means to be Electrolux; they truly understand us and have throughout the process been able to present a completely new and relevantly premium view on us. The standard of Anomaly’s thinking will have a massive impact on how we approach marketing and we look forward partnering with them and making a greater mark in the sector and beyond.”

Camilla Harrisson, CEO at Anomaly London, said: “We’re incredibly excited to start working with Electrolux. From the outset what we loved about the brief was the prospect of working across such a breadth of business-critical challenges - looking at how we can apply our strategic and creative thinking across all consumer touch-points in multiple markets. This level of involvement allows us to make a real, fundamental impact on the business.”

Carl Johnson, Founding Partner and Global CEO at Anomaly, said: “Our partnership with Electrolux comes at an exciting time for both them and Anomaly; we love ambitious clients looking for progressive partnerships and this aligns very well with the recent further strengthening of our global footprint. Just as importantly, they are great people to sit down and solve challenges with - every meeting left us more committed.”
